2026 Kawasaki Teryx4 H2 **ON SALE** The all Teryx®4 H2 and Teryx®5 H2 high-performance side x sides are designed for dune and desert domination. The 250-HP¹ 999cc in-line 4-cylinder supercharged engine is harnessed by a continuously variable transmission (CVT) and a highly rigid frame complemented by long-travel suspension that helps balance the engine's massive power for maximum control. Predictable handling and confident stopping power add to the well-balanced package delivering maximum fun that can be shared with the whole family. 250-hp Supercharged Performance MAXIMUM POWER: At the heart of the all eryx®4 H2 and Teryx®5 H2 high-performance sport side x side is Kawasaki’s newest 250-HP¹ supercharged engine that is built beyond belief. 999CC IN-LINE 4-CYLINDER SUPERCHARGED ENGINE: The Kawasaki-built 999cc liquid-cooled, 4-stroke in-line 4-cylinder supercharged engine raises the performance bar in the sport side x side category and enables the Teryx4/5 H2 side x sides to accelerate seamlessly and to operate in a significantly higher speed range than other Teryx® models. Since the supercharger is driven by the engine rather than exhaust gas, the Teryx4/5 H2 does not have the lag associated with a turbocharger and benefits from strong, instant acceleration. Designed in-house, the highly efficient centrifugal-type supercharger for the Teryx4/5 H2 is based on that of the balanced supercharged engine of the Ninja H2® SX hypersport motorcycle and offers high efficiency over a wide range of engine and vehicle speeds. THE SOUND OF PERFORMANCE: In addition to the exhilarating howl of an in-line 4-cylinder engine, you and your passengers are treated to 2 excitement-enhancing sounds unique to a supercharged engine. The first is the chirping sound, like that of the Ninja H2® hypersport motorcycle, produced when letting off the throttle suddenly from high-rpm, causing an abrupt drop in impeller speed, and it no longer matches the speed of the intake airflow. The other is a low growling sound, unique to the Teryx4/5 H2 side x side, that is heard when back-pressure waves hit the impeller when driving at very slow speed and is a sign that the supercharged engine’s massive power is on stand-by and is ready for action. SMOOTH ACCELERATION: The use of a high-capacity, rubber-belt continuously variable transmission (CVT) capable of withstanding high HP and high rpm was key in achieving smooth, linear power and acceleration. The CVT settings keep the engine speed in the optimum powerband, and without power drops associated with shifting, every push of the accelerator pedal delivers direct, lag-free response. Carefully considered CVT design, cooling system, and optimized belt design with enhanced shape, thickness, and durability help translate the massive power from the high-output, high-revving supercharged engine into forward momentum. The CVT intake duct flows twice the volume of cool air inside the CVT case compared to the Teryx KRX® 1000 side x side, which also contributes to CVT belt life. The CVT temperature is also displayed on the instrument panel for easy monitoring. A gate-style shift lever allows you to easily select from Forward High, Forward Low, Neutral, and Reverse. The three-position transmission has gear ratios optimized for the Teryx4/5 H2 side x side's top speed. With a greater load on the transmission from the high-output engine, louvres on the under guard and fins on the primary pulley help keep things cool. ADJUSTABLE POWER DELIVERY: On-the-fly electrically selectable 4WD and front differential lock enable you to quickly and easily switch between drive systems to suit changing terrain and applications. 2WD offers light steering, 4WD offers enhanced traction while keeping steering light, 4WD + front differential lock offers maximum traction. Power Mode selection offers the choice of Full, Mid, or Low power to suit preference and conditions. Full Power mode: Unrestricted engine output allowing you to experience the full potential of the supercharged engine., Mid Power mode: Engine output is approximately 80% of Full, and reduced output further enhances control and is convenient for cruising., Low Power mode: Engine output is approximately 60% of Full, and reduced output enhances control for low-speed operations like backing out of a trailer. POWER-TO-WEIGHT RATIO: From the crankshaft, cams, pistons, connecting rods, and driveshaft to the frame and suspension were all purpose-built and designed with robust strength to be able to handle the high power of the supercharged engine. The very linear power delivery facilitates control while still being quick on its feet thanks to the light overall weight. OPTIMAL AIRFLOW: Dual snorkel air intakes, one for the supercharged engine and one for the continuously variable transmission (CVT), are located behind the rear passenger doors. Pre-filters at the intake entrances help ensure minimal dust ingestion. In the engine intake, a Donaldson air filter located downstream also offers superb dust collection performance. As the impeller pumps air into the supercharger, the high-pressure air is then routed to an intercooler that helps minimize heat gain by cooling the intake air and allowing a greater volume of air to flow, contributing to overall performance. A combination of optimal placement of heat-generating components, an electric fan below the intercooler, tandem radiators, a liquid-cooled oil cooler, and more contributes to efficient cooling for the high-output engine. Electronic Throttle Valves, blow-off valve, and diffuser all play a key role in optimal airflow. Intake and exhaust ports were also optimized for the high-power supercharged engine. Long-duration, high-lift camshafts facilitate the high-volume airflow. The high lift helps large volumes of air enter and exit the combustion chamber quickly, and with the wide overlap, intake air is used to help expel the spent fuel-air mixture out the exhaust ports. 33-in. Tires & KECS With Acceleration Sensors MAXIMUM CONTROL: Knowing that power is nothing without control, Kawasaki engineers went to great lengths in designing the transmission, frame, and suspension to allow drivers to take full advantage of the engine’s potential, resulting in smooth, linear power delivery, a highly composed character, predictable handling, and confidence-inspiring brakes. ALL-TERRAIN TIRES WITH 16-IN ALUMINUM WHEELS: The 33-in Maxxis® Carnivore Plus tires were designed for high-speed operation. These all-terrain tires offer an excellent balance of grip, slide control, and traction with an off-road pattern that offers excellent grip for running at high speed across the open desert. CONFIDENT STOPPING POWER: At the front are 4 270mm large-diameter petal brake discs with 3-piston calipers and twin-piston calipers in the rear deliver superb braking force, offering confident speed management when entering a corner or coming to a stop. Tailored engine braking characteristics offer reassuring support on challenging descents, especially in Low gear. As the driver pushes the brake pedal, the rear brakes engage first, followed by the front brakes. This offers a very natural, linear brake feel that facilitates precision brake force control. Pulling the parking brake lever (conveniently located between the front seats) activates the rear brakes. CALM IN THE CAB: Even during sport riding, the cab is remarkably calm thanks to the highly rigid frame and stable platform offered by the wide 74-in stance and 126-in wheelbase complemented by massive, long-travel suspension that helps soak up obstacles. Designed using Kawasaki’s advanced dynamic rigidity analysis, the frame incorporates the Rollover Protection Structure (ROPS) as a stressed member. The structure achieves a balance of a low-profile silhouette and sufficient headroom. The ROPS is made from high-tensile steel with the B-, C-, and D-pillars positioned as far out as possible to allow more room in the cab. PREDICTABLE HANDLING: When it comes to sport riding, a predictable handling character is a key element of control. When the wheels turn, the long-travel suspension and large-diameter tires work together to redirect the vehicle in the desired direction, helping you trace your intended line through the corner. Quick-steering handling and speed-sensitive electric power steering (EPS) help keep steering effort light. Kawasaki’s high-grade EPS system also acts as a damping system, enhancing ride comfort and control. Double wishbone front suspension with long upper and lower A-arms use a fortified, high-strength molded construction to achieve the rigidity needed for the wide stance, benefiting high-speed control and enabling strong, firm braking. Rear beefy 4-link trailing arm suspension also features a fortified high-strength molded construction to handle the Teryx4/5 H2 side x sides higher-speed range. Low Profile Silhouette Design MAXIMUM IMPACT - EXTERIOR: As the Teryx® side x side flagship, it was important that the Teryx4/5 H2 side x sides look the part. The sleek, low-profile design, wide stance, and aggressive front-end are complemented by luxuriously painted Lime Green bodywork—a head-turning combination that conveys both its high level of performance as well as its high-grade build. LOOK THE PART: With its sleek, low-profile silhouette, the Teryx4/5 H2 side x sides include design highlights that rise towards the rear, creating a forward-leaning image. The large intake scoop on the hood adds to the sporty design and helps direct cooling air to the tandem radiators. The blacked-out front grille is flanked by aggressive LED accent lights and compact LED headlights, giving the Teryx4/5 H2 a fierce expression. DUAL-EXIT EXHAUST: The exhaust system features a 4-2-1-pre-chamber-silencer layout with the pipe length optimized to complement the high-output engine. At the rear, the distinctive dual-exit exhaust is a visual cue that this is no ordinary side x side. KAWASAKI RIVER MARK: The Kawasaki River Mark emblem is proudly displayed on the front hood, steering wheel, and ignition key – an indication that the Teryx4/5 H2 side x sides are the flagship of the Teryx® family, a symbol prominently featured on Kawasaki’s most prestigious and high-performance machines. KEEP IT COOL: The bright red net-style intercooler cover in the rear emphasizes the sporty, high-performance image.
